What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from? (piefed.social)

For example, for me, I would *love* a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!

A bit of an obscurer one, but I would love another Black & White, based on Black & White 2. It's a god game where you control a giant bipedal creature, control a city (or several) and battle against other gods through architecture and combat. You can train your creature to do things you prefer and expand your influence however you like.

It had a good/evil morality system, is completely winnable by being a pacifist, and has a really cute style of humor.

No other God game has quite scratched that itch and it's still fun to this day almost 20 years later.

And it's the perfect fit for a VR game as well. The top down towering from the heavens over your domain would make the island feel like a table top game.. And you could give your pet proper scritches.
